Los Angeles are still two-game behind to the 8th placed Valkyries so they can&rsquo;t afford a defeat here. With a 6-4 record in the last 10, they tried to pull off a late push for the playoffs. The Sparks enter the fixture with a 92-84 loss against the Mercury so they desperately need a win here.<\/p><p>On the other hand, the Fever is pushing things hard without their key player, Caitlin Clark. The Fever moved to sixth in the table after a blowout win over Storm. The victory came after dropping two consecutive matches. Indiana will have their fate in their hands as they will take on playoffs rivals four times in remaining six games. With a 20-18 record, the Fever need a final push for the postseason. They also want to avoid the eighth seeding.<\/p><p>Here is the complete WNBA injury report and projected lineups for Sparks vs. Fever, with Caitlin Clark fueling attention in Los Angeles.<\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Los Angeles Sparks vs. Indiana Fever Injury Report <\/h2><p><strong>When<\/strong>: August 29, 2025 | 10:00 pm ET<br><strong>Venue<\/strong>: Crypto.com Arena, Los Angeles <br><strong>TV<\/strong>: NBA TV, CBS Sports Network | Live Stream: Fubo, WNBA League Pass&nbsp;<\/p><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Los Angeles Sparks Status Report <\/h3><ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Rickea Jackson: Probable <\/li>\n<\/ul><p>The Sparks don&rsquo;t have any player listed out on the injury report for their upcoming clash against the Fever.&nbsp;Rickea Jackson is on day-to-day basis and she is likely to play on Friday. <\/p><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Indiana Fever Status Report <\/h3><ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Chloe Bibby: Out <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Caitlin Clark: Out <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Sophie Cunningham: Out <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Sydney Colson: Out <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Aari McDonald: Out <\/li>\n<\/ul><p>Indiana Fever have dropped a lengthy injury report for Friday&rsquo;s crucial matchup.
